Stop creating my own negative experiences.
My insecurities and
social
anxiety
cause people to not want to be around me. How do I stop creating the experiences with people that make me feel so bad. You know how your behavior causes the things you don't want. They say you create your experiences in life.

College
Yet then, my
social
anxiety
kicked in and it all went downhill from there. Initially I had thought I had a friend group and was going to make a lot of friends, but news flash: making friends is not that easy.

TRIGGER Suicidal ideation
TRIGGER I want to leave this earth. But I won’t. I promise. But that’s what is on my mind and I’m tired of suffering. I don’t want to call anyone or go anywhere. I just need to release this thought and get support until this passes. I just can’t believe one can suffer so much. I’m so on edge so depressed

Trying to balance what I lose/gain from medication. Meditating to manage Anxiety
I have severe
social
anxiety
and some GAD and have been taking venlafaxine/effexor since I graduated college. By far the best outcome of any psychotropic Ive tried. I can go to work and carry on normal conversations with people without falling apart. My own thoughts and feelings arn't torture.

Loneliness
Hi, everyone. Lately, I've found myself feeling a bit lonely-which is weird because I have friends and a lot of people who care about me, but it's like I still crave some kind of further emotional warmth (when I go to bed, I literally find myself wishing I could snuggle with someone). I also think it

Venlafaxine issues
I am the main carer for my sister aged 75 who has been on antidepressants since her teenage years. Recently she has had a change of brands and is now on Bluefish Venlablue XL 75mg and is worried about the feelings she is experiencing. Has anyone else had similar problems going straight from one brand

anxiety or psychosis?
Every psychologist and psychiatrist I’ve seen has told me I’ve had
social
anxiety
. Even though she doesn’t specialize in mental health, I’m so scared I might be psychotic. I’ve always been afraid that there was something else wrong with me and that it was more than just
anxiety
.

Fluoxetine
Hello good morning, Yes I’m on Fluoxetine again (For the second time) currently on week four. Yes you will feel a increase in Anxiety, unfortunately you will certainly feel this increase in the first few weeks (1&2) no sleep, absolutely low esteem. I’m now on week four and I’ve turned a corner and can

Anxiety
I suffer from
anxiety
.
Social
phobia too. And depression. I am on SSD but work part time as a home health aide.. I am 64 and have diabetes so I am in the vulnerable category. I belong to a few groups and see a therapist. Everyone is going visual and I'm unable to access this.

Mental Health during Social Conflict - Who Can We Turn Too?
Covid was an
anxiety
magnifier and now there is
social
unrest. I like many other mental health patients are experiencing deeper anxiety and depression. I have few friends and family to talk to but lucky to have a few.

Any musicians or performing artists with social anxiety struggling to get back out there?
It's too long a story to explain but basically, I did not (originally) quit playing due to
social
anxiety
, though I have always been a very shy person and had a lot of stage fright before playing, but faced it somehow in the past.

20 YEAR OLD DAUGHTER WITH INATTENTIVE ADHD AND ANXIETY
I am not sure if it's related to the vyvanse (I really don't think so, ,but probably makes it worse), but she has
anxiety
- especially
social
anxiety
. And within the last year or so, Ive found her to be really irritable and often cranky.

I’ve opened Pandora’s Box... a little
I haven’t written bc my thoughts have made me want to get tied of this page and delete everything the same day I joined. The same day I joined I told my husband what was going on with me. I later went into my postpartum visit and I finally talked to a therapist, I was given medication about my anxiety

Do you ever feel like nobody actually cares?
I feel ignored by the world and I feel like because of me going silent I'm losing my people skills and just have severe
social
anxiety
because I can't just connect with anybody. My whole perception of the world is off and I don't feel like anything I say or do matters. 🤷♀️
